Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • The patient must be ≥ 18 years old at the time of signing the ICF.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who are presenting evidence of ascites, cirrhosis, portal hypertension, main portal venous tumor involvement or thrombosis as determined by clinical or radiologic assessment.
  • Patients who are planned to receive or concurrently receiving any non-cancer-directed investigational agent, or have received a non-cancer directed investigational agent within 3 weeks before the planned day for the first NKR-2 administration.
  • Patients who are scheduled to receive concurrent growth factor (except erythropoietin), systemic steroid, other immunosuppressive therapy or cytotoxic agents (systemic or localized) other than the treatment authorized per protocol.

Arm Description

The dose-level 1 arm will use a 3+3 design. NKR-2 cells will be administered every 2 weeks (14 days) for a total of 3 administrations (hepatic transarterial administrations) within 4 weeks (28 days)

The dose-level 2 arm will use a 3+3 design. NKR-2 cells will be administered every 2 weeks (14 days) for a total of 3 administrations (hepatic transarterial administrations) within 4 weeks (28 days)

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

The occurrence of DLTs until 14 days after the last NKR-2 study treatment administration (Visit Day 43)
A DLT is defined as any Grade 3 or higher toxicity and any Grade 2 or higher autoimmune toxicity

Secondary Outcome Measures

The occurrence of AEs and SAEs during the study treatment until 30 days after the last study treatment administration (Visit Day 57)
AEs and SAEs collection
The occurrence and duration of objective clinical response (complete response (CR), partial response (PR))
Complete response (CR), partial response (PR)
The occurrence and duration of clinical benefit (complete response (CR), partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD))
Complete response (CR), partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD)
The occurrence and duration of mixed response (MR)
The different types of MR are defined according to the following criteria: at least 30% decrease in the longest diameter (or shortest diameter for nodal lesions) occurring in at least one target lesion recorded and measured at baseline. Such response occurring in otherwise SD or PD status of the sum of diameters of target lesions and without the appearance of one or more new lesions will be classified as "MR (SD)", which corresponds to a SD with target lesion regression or "MR (PD)", which corresponds to PD with target lesion regression and, the appearance of new lesion(s) in otherwise PR status of the sum of diameters of target lesions will be classified as "MR (PR)", which corresponds to a PR with new lesion.
The resection rate at Visits Day 57 and Month 3
Assessment of R0, R1 and R2 resections
The progression-free survival (PFS)
The progression-free survival (PFS) is defined from registration in the study to the disease progression or death from any cause
The event-free survival (EFS)
The event-free survival (EFS) is defined as the time from registration in the study to any of the following events: progression, local or distant recurrence, or death from any cause
The overall survival (OS).
The overall survival (OS) is defined as the time from registration in the study to death. If death does not occur before the patient's last study visit, then the survival will be censored at the date when patient is known to be alive

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to test an experimental anti-cancer immunotherapy called NKR-2 (modified T cells), to treat colorectal cancer with unresectable liver metastases. The trial will test three dose levels (dose escalation). At each dose, the patients will receive three successive hepatic transarterial administrations, two weeks apart, of NKR-2 cells. The study will enroll up to 18 patients.
